Why can’t smaller businesses buy serious software at sensible prices?

Mohsin Shah has spent twenty years building software: systems for Merrill Lynch and VISA Europe early on, then leading engineering at IoT, aviation and fintech companies, most recently as Head of Development at a UK card-payments platform.

Along the way he kept hearing the same thing from smaller businesses: the serious software firms won’t return our calls, and the ones that will, we can’t afford.

The economics are real. A senior London engineering team costs what it costs. But Mohsin had spent seven years running mixed UK and offshore teams and knew a model that works: UK leadership and accountability, senior global delivery, and complete honesty about which is which. CloudMSD is that model as a company.
